The mother of the groom and mother of the bride should wear appropriate clothing to their children’s wedding. Remember that the length and decolletage of the dress should be modest. Mid-calf length or knee-length is perfect. No mini-skirts. No deep necklines or open-back dresses. But it is perfectly fine to wear a tight-fitting dress or spaghetti straps or a sleeveless gown. The dress can be sexy but not tacky and vulgar.

It’s really creepy how the honeymoon as a wedding tradition appeared. The honeymoon dates back to those old times when men kidnapped the woman they fell for. So, the groom just saw a beautiful girl, kidnapped her, and hid her somewhere for about a month. After this time, the girl’s family stopped looking for her and the newlyweds kept living together. Usually, after a month, the bride was already pregnant, so her family had to accept her marriage. It’s good that today we don’t do such barbarian things anymore.

It is a serious dilemma for many brides: to choose the shoes she likes most or to buy a sensible pair that she will wear more than once. It is too wasteful to buy a pair of shoes and wear them only during the wedding day.
